Will it be a 'swadeshi' run on the home-made Mahindra Scorpio for Prime Minister-designate Narendra Modi or will he switch over to the German BMWs, designated vehicles for the country's top leader? Scorpio, long used by Modi as his official vehicle including during his victory laps post the election results, now wants to follow him into the coveted 7 Race Course Road address, or the PM House.
Anand Mahindra, chairman of the Mahindra Group, has expressed his desire that the bonding continues. "It will be a matter of pride for us and for the whole nation if our new PM continues to make the India-made Scorpio his vehicle of choice," Mahindra told TOI as the company looks to make the required security upgrades to Scorpio to meet the PM's security cover.
Thrilled at the possibility, the company says that it would make suitable upgrades to the vehicle in line with the stringent requirements of the security apparatus mandated for the Prime Minister. "We would like to see him continue on a Scorpio. We need to have a dialogue with the SPG to understand the security apparatus and requirements," says Pawan Goenka, president of Mahindra & Mahindra's automotive division.
